Nigel & Debbie's Podcast

We weren't created to live self-sufficient lives, we were designed for deep union with God. But too often, we ask Him to bless our agenda, reducing our faith to what's in our wallet or bank account. We forget to live from His presence and plan and that in this we have access to His limitless supply. God doesn't just give us things; He shares Himself with us.  This requires a shift in our trust. Worship is our posture of trust. Finances are a place in our lives where we either worship or fail to worship. In this message, Pastor Debbie challenges us to shift our mindset from survival to supernatural living, to stop looking at our wallets and start looking at Him—our eternal, inexhaustible Source.

"If the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few, perhaps it's time to stop merely praying for the harvest and start praying for the courage to step forward and become the workers we are called to be."

In this episode, Pastor Nigel speaks into the generational shift happening right now and the invitation from heaven to partner in bringing transformation to the earth. To walk in this calling, we must rise above fear and gain heaven's perspective. Drawing from Romans 12:1, Pastor Nigel unpacks the deep connection between worship and sacrifice—reminding us that true worship isn't about what we receive, but about what we bring. Worship demands faith, and faith calls us to trust. If you've felt the stirring to live differently in this season, this message will challenge and inspire you to come up higher.

In this episode, Pastor Nigel shares a prophetic dream that speaks directly to the season we're living through. He unpacks how our perspective shapes our journey—and what posture we must take to navigate the days ahead. Tune in for revelation, direction, and a timely word for this moment.

How do we healthily respond to the call of God on our life? How do we root ourselves to allow the gifts on our lives to flow from a place of relationship not performance and enrich the communities around us?

"Living the 'One Anothers' in the 21st Century." By Pastor Costa Mitchell

In this episode, we explore the power of the stories we tell ourselves and how they shape our lives. Are you living according to narratives crafted by others, or are you listening for God's story through His Word and His voice? Join us as we dive into the importance of aligning your story with God's promises and discovering His truth over the lies the world may offer. Don't let yourself get caught in stories that don't reflect God's plan for your life!

How much stillness do you have in your life? This episode highlights the transformative power of stillness, showing how it creates space for the Holy Spirit and allows us to experience the life God promises. By making room for Him, we surrender more of ourselves and invite His presence. Stillness exposes the idols and distractions we often rely on, and by embracing rest, we respond to God's call to "Be still and know I am God." At its core, rest is an act of worship, reminding us that true peace and fulfilment come through surrendering to God.

How do we remain in hope with a heart that feels sick? In moments of deep pain and confusion, it's easy to feel abandoned by God, questioning why things happen and wondering if we've done something wrong. Pastor Jess shares a personal message on wrestling with God. How do we lean into the wrestle, trusting that He is both the God of tomorrow's promises and the God who weeps with us in our brokenness?

Mike shares a message on giving, generosity, tithing and living a life of trust and abundance. 

We had the immense privilege of hosting Jeremy Hilliard, a pastor from Bethel Church in California encouraging us with a word on shifting from a performance mentality and stepping into rest and relationship.

Pastor Nigel expands on our January theme "a season of promises fulfilled" by highlighting tools we need to enter in.

Pastor Jess preaches on living life in faith and proximity to Jesus, without limiting God to the level of your understanding

As we enter a new season we hear, “Be bold and courageous…the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” (Josh 1:9) Stepping over any threshold requires faith and the source of our faith is this “I will be with you”.  Fear is merely faith in a different word.

In this New Year's message, Pastor Nigel shares a message on upgrading our levels of Hope. God is working with his bride to release his purposes into the earth, in order to carry and release the supernatural we need to have high levels of supernatural hope

The unseen does not mean the "unreal". Though the future is unseen by us, it is not unseen by God. We have to take every thought captive, bring them into alignment and confess with our mouths the promises of what is yet unseen. 

We live in pictures. Humans think in pictures and talk in words. Pictures inspired by our imagination are powerful tools that your brain is using all the time. 2 Cor 4:18 tells us to fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. To see the unseen, you need to use your imagination. You can't have faith without activating your imagination - letting God's Word seed thought pictures in your head.

Worship is so much more than just a moment or a song. Worship is laying everything you have and everything you are down, a sacrifice and a lifestyle.  Our incredible worship leader Tehila shares a beautiful message on coming back to the heart of worship. 

Your behaviour, what you spend your time doing, will show you what you truly value. If you want to change your behaviour, more important than trying harder to change, you need to pay attention to your values. What you value will direct your life.

Do we have any idea of the privilege it is to stand in the manifested presence of God? Do we take it lightly or do we give Him the reverence He is due? 

If your life is a story, what are the people around you reading? We had the immense privilege of having Pastor Doug with us all the way from Richmond Virgina this Sunday, sharing on how to let your life tell a powerful story. 

Our modern world rewards self reliance, but in limiting our lives to only what can be done on our own, how much of the abundant, limitless life God has for us is lost Pastor Debbie preaches on stepping out of the boat beyond human capability to allow God to fill your life with His.

The people of God are supposed to be marked by the presence of God. In a marriage there isn't a mine and yours but an ours. When we entered into covenant with God we are supposed to be living on His account, living from and bringing the abundance of Heaven to Earth.

There is a cry for justice happening all around us, but the importance of how we achieve it and how we perceive it cannot be overstated.

Desert seasons are a given in life, in fact most people used greatly by God spent time in a desert. How we journey through these seasons determines much of where we will end up.

Do we live like heaven is a real place? Do we live like the Spiritual realm exists around us? It's time to start living like we believe what we teach.

This Father's Day's message celebrates the Power that a good father makes.

When asked what you can do to promote world peace, Mother Teresa said, “Go home and love your family.” Healthy families are paramount to the foundation of society, the enemy knows that if he goes after the family he can attack the building blocks of the world. What can we do to not only protect our families going forward, but heal from wounds in our past?

The gospel of the Kingdom has always had the power to transform nations. In this message Pastor Nigel shares about the adventure and the joy of sharing our faith with others.

Do find yourself constantly defending yourself to the accusations inside of your own head? Living inside of a courtroom in your head means you are living in shame, shame hides us from relationship with God which will lead to repentance and freedom.  Pastor Debbie leads us on a powerful message of repentance, wholeness and freedom.

With so many pivotal moments happening in nations across the globe, Ps Nigel goes back to the 10 commandments an original blueprint for setting up free, Godly and successful nations.

With so many pivotal moments happening this year in nations across the globe, Ps Nigel goes back to the 10 commandments an original blueprint for setting up free, Godly and successful nations.

Without hope there can be no future. Where are your feet planted, how do you see the land that is before you and how much of that place is within your personal power and responsibility to change. 

Our great commission is to make disciples of all nations, not just in all nations. What does it look like to bring the Gospel to impact, reform and revive the nations of the world?

Recently, Pastor Nigel had the privilege of speaking at the Transform Africa Conference where he spoke powerfully on the critical part art plays in bringing understanding and meaning to life.

This Sunday, Pastor Nigel spoke about what it takes to disciple nations. If we as the church believe that we are supposed to be light to the world and that the world is getting dark... it's not the world's problem. 

We can mistakenly believe that once we've become a christian our lives should automatically look easier, but the reality is trials and tribulation are in fact biblical. How you stand in trial will determine whether you step into greater authority or walk away from the call of God on your life. In this, we must look to Jesus the greatest overcomer.

Pastor Nigel shares on a new season the Holy Spirit has been whispering to us about and the keys and principals we feel we need to be preparing for it.

We have to have faith that expects to encounter the Lord. We talk a great game, but when it comes down to it, do we have the faith to expect the miracles we preach about?

Nigel and Jess discuss the power of a gospel that has been physically encountered and how to build a life with space for the Holy Spirit to invade.

1 John 1:1-4 speaks about a gospel that is not just taught and learnt, but a gospel that has been encountered. We are called into a relationship with God but many christians mistake knowing a lot about God for actually knowing God, this is not friendship. When someone has a lot of knowledge about you but has never encountered you, that's not a friend, that's a stalker.  In this podcast episode, Pastor Jessica speaks on how we create space in our lives for encounters that foster a real and true friendship with God.

To love is to be vulnerable, to love is to be inconvenienced, valuable things come at a cost but love is the only thing you get more of by giving it away. In the final week of our Love series, Pastor Debbie preaches on learning to love.

God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. We are created to live in God and to be lived in by God! Knowing and receiving the love that God has for you is the most beautiful key to becoming a vessel through which God can touch the world. Learn how to receive God's love and how to overcome common hindrances to knowing that love. 

What is truth? Is that true? What and how do we build a life on something more stable than likely opinions. All this and more in this week's episode of Rabbit Trails.

LOVE is an over used word. We love ice cream, our team, sunshine, puppies and our family or God. We use love to emphasize and inflate our feelings but in the end inflation just devalues the currency and we lose the power and trust in the meaning of the word Love.  However God is Love and so far from being meaningless love gives us our ultimate purpose and our deepest fulfillment. To dive deeper listen to this inspiring message from Ps. Debbie. 

Did you know that a recent study found that loneliness is a greater predicted of ill health that diabetes? Jesus hung our purpose on one word, L-O-V-E. You were born in, for and from relationship. You are made to be known, seen and loved.

What is the manifested presence of God? What does a manifestation look like? How do we know that it's God? Is it possible to experience God 24/7 or only in divinely appointed moments? All this and more in our first episode back! 

Eph 3:17 speaks about being rooted and grounded in love. Many of us live our lives trying to produce fruit, but the fruit God wants to produce in our lives doesn't come from us but from the indwelling Spirit within us. What we need to do is position ourselves so that our root system is in His love. Roots before fruits!

What should be your greatest, highest pursuit? The Bible says that it is love. Love should be our underlying culture, our highest aim, our operating system. Successes, accomplishments and all other good and wonderful things are empty and unfulfilling if they are devoid of love.

If we haven't attended to the culture of our hearts, the seed that God sows into our lives will not bear fruit. Pastor Nigel kicks off the new year with speaking on the importance of developing a culture that promotes thriving. 

How do we plow our lives with hope? What does it mean to be so confident in the quality of our hope that we could no longer subject to failure? How do we build a hope that does not fluctuate when life disappoints us? In this weeks podcast, our very own Timothy Mooney preaches an amazing message on hope!
